22 “And
now I am bound by the Spirit to go to Jerusalem. I don’t know what
awaits me, 23 except
that the Holy Spirit tells me in city after city that jail and
suffering lie ahead.24 But
my
life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work
assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the
work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of
God.
Acts 20:24
Three
Reasons to Surrender to God
- God
is all-wise
and knows better than anyone else what is the best for my life.
14 “I
am the good shepherd; I
know my own sheep,
and they know me, 15 just
as my Father knows me and I know the Father. So I
sacrifice my life for the sheep.
John
10:14-15
11 For I know the plans I have for you,”
says the Lord. “They are plans for good and
not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah 29:11
19 That
night the secret was revealed to Daniel in a vision. Then Daniel
praised the God of heaven. 20 He
said, “Praise the name of God forever and ever, for he
has all wisdom and power.
21 He
controls the course of world events;
he removes kings and sets up other kings. He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to the scholars. 22 He
reveals deep and mysterious things and knows what lies hidden in
darkness, though he is surrounded by light. 23 I
thank and praise you, God of my ancestors, for you have given me
wisdom and strength. You have told me what we asked of you and
revealed to us what the king demanded.”
- He
is almighty
and has the power to accomplish what is best for me.
I
cry out to God Most High, to God
who will fulfill his purpose for me.
Psalm
57:2
Don’t
copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let
God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.
Then you will learn to know God’s
will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
Romans 12:2
Your
own ears will hear him.
Right behind you a
voice will say,
“This is the way you should go,” whether to the right or to the left.
“This is the way you should go,” whether to the right or to the left.
Isaiah
30:21
If
you need wisdom, ask
our generous God, and he will give it to you.
He will not rebuke you for asking.
James 1:5
3.
God loves me more
than anyone else does.
The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them (you) a rich and satisfying life. John 10:10
9 God showed how much he loved us by
sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have
eternal life through him. 10 This
is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent
his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. 11 Dear
friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each
other. 1 John 4:9-11
See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him. 1 John 3:1
